Princeton University Concerts is set to present a family concert series featuring musicians from The Chamber Music Society of Lincoln Center.
The first concert in PUC’s Meet the Music series, A Trilling Event, it scheduled for 1 p.m. Nov 16 at the university’s Richardson Auditorium in Alexander Hall.
A Trilling Event features the story of a wacky private “ear,” Inspector Pulse, who must determine the identity of a highly ornamented tune for a desperate client. The tune has a familiar ring, but it is so full of trills, trinkets and decorative doodads that the Inspector must investigate all the ways a melody can be embellished in order to solve the mystery.
The concert features chamber music of Telemann, Handel and Bach.
The Chamber Music Society’s director of family programs Bruce Adolphe is set to play Inspector Pulse.
Performers include Gilles Vonsattel on piano, Areta Zhulla on violin, Nicholas Canellakis on cello, Sooyun Kim on Flute and soprano Ying Fang.
Tickets are $10 for adults and $5 for children.
The next concert in the Meet The Music series, Leave It To Ludwig, is scheduled for 1 p.m. March 15. Beethoven himself will appear in Richardson to help a young pianist play his music as he meant it to be played.
